SISJ KIDS: CRAFTY CRAFTINESS WITH HABITOTS! >

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I truly have trouble boiling an egg, but I can throw a pretty party (and a fun one!). A few weeks ago we celebrated MG’s second birthday in fabulous PINK-PEPPA-PIG-STYLE, at Greenfields at Albert Park Lake. We had about 20 – 25 little humans in attendance, so this meant I had to have multiple activities to keep them busy and happy! One of the winners with the kids was the Habitots craft table – which came with its very own art teacher (!!!) – the lovely Karyn Herath (MG’s Messy Play teacher at Habitots). Pretty much every single child was glued to this table #pardonthepun, for the entire party!

For those of you who aren’t familiar with ‘Messy Play’, these are weekly classes the Habiots team run for pre-schoolers at their South Melbourne location. MG did this class every Wednesday of term 4 last year and L-U-R-V-E-D IT! You literally turn-up, pop a smock on them and let them run wild, ha! Each week Karyn has a different theme and they make their way through a variety of creative stations – it really was the BEST fun. Below is some gawgeous pics from MG’s birthday and some more info about Habitots, where they are located and a link to their class info.

ABOUT HABITOTS, BY HABITOTS:

The world we live in is busy, chaotic and at times stressful. As parents we are doing our best to bring up stable little kids who thrive in life and have all the opportunities to be their best. To grow into empathetic human beings. To excel. But this is hard and with the daily stresses of work & life, we sometimes forget how to slow it all down. We’re here to help. We love to play. We love to laugh & to learn. We love to get messy and make stuff. We don’t think you have to be particularly good at it, you just have to try. And this is what our kids want. Time with us. Playing. Being. Living.

We’ve developed a gorgeous kids art program that we run in locations around the world where parents & kids can reconnect. Get messy and make stuff together. Build on the principles of play-based learning, we help kids gain confidence through play, grow their self-esteem and their creative imagination. Outside our regularly scheduled classes, we partner with companies and organisations who want us to deliver this same learning experience at their events or locations.
